Nature has been America's premiere showcase for natural history programming since 1982. One of the most acclaimed series in the history PBS, enthralled viewers have been travelling to every corner of the globe while discovering the drama and beauty at the heart of the natural world. In the company of host George Page, viewers eyes and minds have been opened to the astonishing array of wildlife, flora and fauna that shape and share our planet. The Nature Archive Series presents many of the best shows in the the award winning series' history. Independent, mysterious, aloof and only a "whisker away" from their untamed ancestors, Cats takes a closer look at one of nature's perfect predators living in our midst. From ancient Egypt's veneration to medieval Europe's persecution to present day America's adoration, Cats explores their surprising history. Reigning with sublime indifference in over 30% of American homes, many cats live a pampered existence. Like the tiger whom they most closely resemble, These solitary hunters specialize in blending into their environment. Cats will take you on a journey of discovery visiting tigers in Africa, wild cats in the Galapagos, farm cats in Illinois and stray cats in New York City revealing the many links that still exist to the world of nature along the way. - Directors:
